Trader Joe's Just Brought Back This Seasonal Fan-Favorite Item, and It's Guaranteed to Fly Off Shelves Fast
As a grocer that puts extra emphasis on worldly cuisine, Trader Joe’s gives its customers plenty of seasonal releases to look forward to. The popular neighborhood grocery chain has made it its bread and butter to offer the latest and greatest in fan-favorite ingredients, of which many are sourced directly from the very places in which they are born. And with a roster as rich as Trader Joe’s, the chances of you getting excited about multiple seasonal releases a year are pretty high.
Of the highly sought-after list of products that get released on a yearly basis, Portuguese Flor de Sal is an undeniable fan-favorite. The Trader Joe’s-branded gourmet sea salt is chosen amongst hundreds of shoppers due to its special harvesting process. This brand of sea salt is manually collected by hand from a thin layer of salt crystals formed on the surface of the sea. Flor de Sal is very similar to its French equivalent, Fleur de Sel, both of which are harvested through a gentle process rather than the traditional sea salt harvesting methods using machines.

Part of what sets Flor de Sal apart from other sea salt brands is its salt crystals, which boast a flaky consistency that lends to the meaning of its name, “salt flower,” in Portuguese. Unlike other sea salts, Flor de Sal contains a lot more moisture than its counterparts while also being a 100-percent natural source of magnesium and iodine. Trader Joe’s Flor De Sal comes packaged in a stylish ceramic crock, topped with a cork lid, and sporting the traditional nautical TJ’s graphic on the side.

Customers can pick up a jar for just $4.99 and immediately experience the joys of such a soft and flaky sea salt. Trader Joe’s Treasure Hunt just spotted it at their local TJ’s grocery store, so chances of it being available nearby are strengthening every day.

You can also employ it to season your eggs in the morning, a fresh salad for lunch or a pan of roasted vegetables for dinner. Snag a jar today and start improving your meals in a big salty way.
